WHEN MY play was with
thee I never questioned
who thou wert .I knew
nor shyness nor fear ,my
life was boisterous .
In the early morning
thou wouldest call me
from my sleep like my
own comrade and lead
me running from glade
to glade
On those days I never
cared to know the
meaning of songs thou
sangest to me .Only my
voice took up the tunes ,
and my heart danced in
their candence .
Now ,when the play time
is over ,what is this
sudden sight that is
come upon me ?The
world with eyes bent
upon thy feet stands in
awe with all its silent
stars .
Gitanjali Rabindranath Tagore.
